Cherise bit her lip, feeling uneasy and apprehensive. The idea of contemplating death in such peaceful
atmosphere didn’t sit well with her.
“After dinner tonight, when we return, let Beckham know that I have officially changed my last name to
Shaw and that you plan to take your mother’s surname. Whatever the Tanners your identity, just let it
be. It doesn’t matter.”

Cherise felt warmth in her heart once again. She bit her lip, looking up at Charisa earnestly. “Are you
sure about changing your surname?”
“Absolutely.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCharisa smiled. “The surname Miles wasn’t my original one. I adopted it after marrying someone with
that name. Everyone knows that Miles is not my true family name. If I declare that my original name is
Charisa Shaw, there won’t be any doubts.”
Grateful for the sentiment, Cherise responded sincerely, “Thank you… Mom.”
“Hearing you call me ‘Mom’ makes the name change worth it.” Charisa placed a hand over her heart
while her other hand casually fiddled with her phone, seemingly sending something. “Zach mentioned
that you were quite worried about Elvis’s safety. Earlier, you and Elvis’s wife… well. now she’s my
sister-in-law. From your conversation with her, I sensed that you were concerned about his safety when
he was with me. Is that true?”
Cherise pursed her lips but remained silent.
Zachary sighed softly beside her. “Both of you have misunderstood Aunt Charisa all along. Aunt
Charisa sent me to Adania to locate Uncle Elvis because the Tanners had begun searching for you. We
had to expedite our plans. And about the intention to bring Uncle Elvis back for punishment, it was

“There were two reasons. One was that when Uncle Elvis took you away, he was given an advanced
five years’ worth of salary but hadn’t returned to work. The other reason is… having Uncle Elvis around
would make it easier for you to accept Aunt Charisa.”
“I’m not as foolish as the Tanners.” Charisa glanced briefly at Cherise. “If I were to disclose everything
about your origins abruptly, it would only frighten you. But you trust Elvis. When he reveals it, you’ll find

Cherise appeared taken aback as she looked at Charisa. “So you mean…” Cherise had just realized
that from when Zachary followed her back to Adania, Charisa had planned to reunite with her. It was
clear from the beginning that she had no intention to harm her uncle and only used him as a means for
their reunion.

“Yes,” Charisa confirmed as she calmly raised her teacup and took a sip. “Now that we’ve found cach
other, there’s no need for me to continue associating with Elvis. If he’s willing to remain as my
bodyguard, he’s welcome to do so. If not, staying here and running this little shop with his wife is just as
good.”
The woman smiled faintly. “Perhaps as I near the end, I could come and live with them.”
“After all, I’m now a part of the Shaws.”
